WEBVTT MAKES IT FEEL LIKE 96 DEGREES IN BOSTON RIGHT NOW. WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT FOR TEMPERATURES? BOSTON IS ACTUALLY ONE OF THE WARMER SPOTS. INLAND, IT’S ACTUALLY A LITTLE BIT COOLER. AS YOU HEAD DOWN TO THE SOUTH, TEMPERATURES ARE MUCH COOLER, BUT THE HUMIDITY IS MUCH HIGHER AS YOU LOOK DUMB TWIT THE GATE. CHECK OUT THE DEW POINTS. BOSTON HAS A DEW POINT OF 67, PRETTY STICKY STUFF, BUT VINEYARD HAVEN AT 76 DEGREES, THAT IS REALLY FAKE AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. THE DEW POINT IS UP HERE IN THE OPPRESSIVE CATEGORY. IT WILL STAY THERE THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IT MAY DROP OFF A LITTLE BIT NEXT WEEK, BUT NOT MUCH. IT KEEPS US IN THAT VERY, VERY STICKY AIR, SO THERE’S NO REAL BIG CHANGES BECAUSE WE HAVE THIS BIG BERMUDA HIGH OFFSHORE. THE CIRCULATION AROUND IT PICKS UP ALL THIS MOISTURE IN THE CAROLINAS AND DRIVES IT OVER THE TOP OF US, SO WE ARE ABOUT AS STICKY AS WHAT IT IS DOWN ALONG THE SOUTH COASTAL STATES AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE WILL STAY IN THAT MUGGY WEATHER PATTERN FOR A WIFE. THE OTHER THING IS SET THIS UP FOR THESE THUNDERSTORMS. YOU WILL SEE WE HAVE THESE AREAS INTO HARTFORD AND SPRINGFIELD. THE TENDENCY OF THESE IS TO KIND OF LOW OF AN FALL APART, BUT THIS IS TRACKING TO THE EAST AT ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR, SO IT WOULD NOT GET IN WORCESTER UNTIL ABOUT 6:00 TONIGHT IF IT CAN HOLD TOGETHER, AND I DON’T THINK IT WILL. UP TO THE NORTHEAST, WE ARE LOOKING A LITTLE STRONGER, MAYBE AN HOUR AGO, THEY HAVE KIND OF FALLEN APART, MAY BE LEFT WITH A FEW SPRINKLES NOW TO THE EAST OF KEENE, LIFTING ITS WAY TOWARD MANCHESTER. THE TENDENCY OF THESE ARE ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN, WE LOSE THE POWER FUELING THE. A STRAY EVENING SHOWER IS A POSSIBILITY, BUT OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, ANOTHER WARM AND MUGGY NIGHT OUT THERE. THE AIR IS SO LUCKY RIGHT NOW WITH COOLER OCEAN WATERS, YOU TEND TO GET SOME FOG, ESPECIALLY OVER TO THE CAPE. MID 70’S TONIGHT, EVEN AT THE COAST IT WILL NOT BE TERRIBLY COOL OVERNIGHT TONIGHT. AS WE LOOK INLAND, BUT DROP UP TO 70 DEGREES, BUT AS YOU SAW, THE HUMIDITY VERY HIGH THERE IS WELL. TOMORROW, IT’S A REPEAT. LOOKS LIKE WE COULD SEE SOME AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN. THE MOST LIKELY SPOT SAME AS WE SEE TODAY. 84 TO 90 DEGREES. AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE WEEKEND, I THINK SATURDAY IS PROBABLY YOUR BEST CHANCE OF SEEING RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS. MELEE, ACTUALLY, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IN THE MORNING. SUNDAY LOOKING DRY, BUT IT’S GOING TO BE HOT. SUNDAY AND MONDAY OF THE NEXT SEVEN LOOK LIKE THEY ARE LIKELY TO STAY DRY. IT IS HOT, HUMID, AND TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN HOVERING INTO
